Drawing class, part VII

More drawing class. I decided to try watercolor because I suck at it, which is pretty obvious from exhibit No.1:

So today, I tried again. For the first I had a small statue as a reference. Still sucking.

And the other one was from a book about Lipizzan horses. Of course, the scanner ate most of the very subtle tones, but nevermind.

I think the last one is not so bad.

Well, okay, I know some things are off. Once you stand back and look at the drawing mistakes just glare back at you accusingly... But it was too late to fix them. Or maybe not. Maybe I fix some things later. But for now this is it.

Dry pastel on brown paper (40x60cm).

Drawing class, part IV

I'm back to drawing class after a few months break. Here's an ink figure and a dry pastel figure on brown paper. This is my first time using dry pastel, so I think it's pretty fine.

Drawing class, part III

More charcoal drawings made in class. That's all* for now, I took a pause this month because of exams.

* well, not exactly, but I don't plan to publish the rest.
